  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MH012 - No authorization to display data for distribution center & ?

    The SAP error message MH012 ("No authorization to display data for distribution center &") typically indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorizations to access or view data related to a specific distribution center in the SAP system. This can occur in various modules, particularly in logistics and warehouse management.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Authorizations: The user role assigned to the individual does not include the necessary authorizations for the specific distribution center.
    2. Profile Issues: The user’s authorization profile may not be correctly configured to allow access to the required data.
    3. Organizational Level Restrictions: The distribution center may be restricted at the organizational level, preventing access based on the user's assigned organizational units.
    4. Role Assignment: The user may not have been assigned the correct roles that include access to the distribution center in question.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include access to the distribution center.
    2. Authorization Object: Check the relevant authorization objects (e.g., M_MATE_WRK, M_MATE_MAR, etc.) that control access to the distribution center data. You can do this using transaction code SU53 to analyze the last authorization check and see what is missing.
    3. Role Adjustment: If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, work with your SAP security team to adjust the roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations for the distribution center.
    4. Testing: After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Test access to the distribution center again.
    5. Documentation: Ensure that any changes made to user roles and authorizations are documented for future reference and compliance.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • SU01: User Maintenance
      • SU53: Display Authorization Check
      • PFCG: Role Maintenance
    • Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with the relevant authorization objects that control access to distribution centers and related data.
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or updates related to authorization errors in your specific version of SAP.
    • Security Team: Collaborate with your SAP security team for any complex authorization issues or if you need to create new roles.

    If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be necessary to conduct a more in-depth analysis of the user's authorizations and the configuration of the distribution center in the SAP system.
